American Pure Almond Paste 7-Pound Tub

Love the product and it’s cheaper through Amazon than my local shop.

Tastes great and easy to use. Can was dented when received, but that shouldn't affect anything.

I do a lot of baking here at home.Hubby won't eat anything that I don't cook.I'd been buying solo, 8 Oz packages and it was just too expensive.Hubby came to me a few months ago and said he'd like to buy something for me, anything I would like. I asked him to buy me this #10 can of almond paste!He looked at me strangely and said "well, at least you didn't ask for dirt" (which I've been known to ask for).It took him fewer than 24 hours to appreciate why I'd asked for almond paste!With those expensive little 8 oz packages, I'm limited to what I can make. Usually something like almond macaroons, which is a good way to make a little go a long way.Now I can make him cakes, candies, cookies and pastries and not worry about using it all up in one recipe!

Muy bueno pero no tiene la specification del contenuto in termini di azucar y otros componente

I come from a long line of bakers. My grandmother was a baker in Denmark, and my mother continued this wonderful skill and talent through my childhood. It has carried over with me and my daughters. Because of our heritage, we use quite a bit of marzipan and almond paste, especially around the holidays. I had never purchaed this brand before but decided to give it a try based on other reviews. This almond paste is deicious! The texture is perfect, the flavor and aroma rich and full. It works up well in baking - so far cookies, almond bars and a pastry. Just eating out of the can is great - just ask my 14 year old! I highly recommend this product. It is great quality, the price is VERY reasonable, and it was shipped well padded and quickly. You will love it!!

Haven't opened the can yet, have used similar products in the past. Bought it now to beat the rush for Christmas. I will be using it to make Banket and other backed goods.

My family fell in love with Trader's Joe's Wisconsin Kringle just before the holidays. At the price (and with three 6' boys/men eating them), I decided I should learn to bake them instead of buying one every other day. Who am I kidding? They would eat a whole Kringle everyday if I kept them in supply!After buying 4 small packages of almond paste for the filling (8 ounces each @ $5.44/each) at Walmart, I decided it was time to buy in bulk. Walmart's price works out to $10.88/pound. Buying it in this can, I paid $6.78 a pound, which is about 40% cheaper.It took me about 10 minutes with a kitchen scale and snack size riplock bags to portion out my own 8 ounce quantities. Turns out there were 15 bags, or 7.5 pounds (bonus!). After using one for the immediate Kringle needs, the rest fit in a single gallon-size ziplock bag.The paste is good for up to 3 months in the fridge, or a year in the freezer. If we don't use it all in three months, I'll toss the rest in the freezer. Given how long it takes to make a Kringle from scratch, I'm hoping everyone gets bored of them for a while!

It's not as sweet as it should be. The texture is off and it's greasy.I have been making almond bars for a while. I decided to try to save money on making a large amount for different families. They didn't turn out good at all..The bars hardly have any sweetness or almond flavor to them. They wouldn't cook through properly so when I cut them I had to put the middle part back into the oven. Now I have had to do that before when I didn't cook them long enough so no big deal. The difference this time was that because the edges were removed from the pan, the rest of them did not keep their form.. complete waste of money
